I'm trying to recreate the google image row layout because I can't find any library that can help me. It doesn't matter how many images you add or the size, the row will auto adjust. I'm pretty close except for the vertical alignment of the "Hover text". I'd like to have it in the center of the image. I read this could be done by line-height but this does not work properly when you use a longer piece of text.
Here is my code jsFiddle
<div class="image-row">
<a href="#1" class="wrapper">
<span class="text">Hover text</span>
<img src="https://source.unsplash.com/random/768x960" width="768" height="960"/>
</a>
<a href="#2" class="wrapper">
<span class="text">Hover text</span>
<img src="https://source.unsplash.com/random/1280x851" width="1280" height="851"/>
</a>
<a href="#2" class="wrapper">
<span class="text">Hover text</span>
<img src="https://source.unsplash.com/random/1600x1600" width="1600" height="1600"/>
</a>
</div>
function picRow(selector) {
masterArray = [];
// create each lineArray and push it to masterArray
$(selector).each(function () {
// get "selector" css px value for margin-bottom
// - parse out a floating point number
// - and divide by the outer width to get a decimal percentage
margin = (parseFloat($(this).css("margin-bottom"), 10)) / ($(this).outerWidth());
marginRight = margin * 100 + "%";
// subtract subtract the total child margin from the total width to find the usable width
usableWidth = (1 - ((($(this).find("img").length) - 1) * margin));
// for each child img of "selector" - add a width/height as value in the ratios array
ratios = [];
$(this).find("img").each(function () {
ratios.push(($(this).attr('width')) / ($(this).attr('height')));
});
// sum all the ratios for later divison
ratioSum = 0;
$.each(ratios, function () {
ratioSum += parseFloat(this) || 0;
});
lineArray = [];
$.each(ratios, function (i) {
obj = {
// divide each item in the ratios array by the total array
// as set that as the css width in percentage
width: ((ratios[i] / ratioSum) * usableWidth) * 100 + "%",
height: ((ratios[i] / ratioSum) * usableWidth) * 100 + "%",
// set the margin-right equal to the parent margin-bottom
marginRight: marginRight
};
lineArray.push(obj);
});
lineArray[lineArray.length - 1].marginRight = "0%";
// alert(lineArray[lineArray.length - 1].marginRight);
masterArray.push(lineArray);
});
$(selector).each(function (i) {
$(this).find("img").each(function (x) {
$(this).css({
"width": masterArray[i][x].width,
"margin-right": masterArray[i][x].marginRight
});
});
$(this).find(".text").each(function (x) {
var imgHeight = $(this).parent().find("img").height();
//console.log(imgHeight)
$(this).css({
"width": masterArray[i][x].width,
"height": imgHeight,
"margin-right": masterArray[i][x].marginRight
});
});
});
}
$(document).ready(function () {
picRow(".image-row");
});
$( window ).resize(function() {
picRow(".image-row");
});
html, body {
height: 100%;
}
.image-row {
width: 100%;
margin: 1% 0;
}
.image-row img {
width: 100%;
height: auto;
display: block;
font-size: 0;
float: left;
}
.image-row::after {
content: "";
display: table;
clear: both;
}
*{
box-sizing: border-box;
}
.wrapper {
position: relative;
padding: 0;
/*width:100px;*/
display:block;
}
.text {
position: absolute;
top: 50%;
/*line-height: 441px;*/
color:#9CBDBE;
font-weight:bold;
font-size:100%;
background-color:#fff;
width: 100px;
text-align: center;
padding: 1%;
z-index: 10;
opacity: 0;
-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease;
-moz-transition: all 0.5s ease;
-o-transition: all 0.5s ease;
transition: all 0.5s ease;
}
.text:hover {
opacity:0.8;
}
img {
z-index:1;
}
People tell me this is possible without jQuery and just using CSS but then I lose all the responsiveness..
